This carefully crafted necklace is a mix of fabric covered teak beads and "gutka" glass beads.
The multi-coloured and upcycled cotton fabric is wrapped around light teak beads. The fabric is cut extremely small and secured to small teak beads. Small threads are ruffled and left to give the beads texture.
In India, the glass beads are called "gutka". The gutka glass beads are interdispersed with the fabric beads to give used in this necklace vibrant colours and an intricate design.
All fixtures like the chain and clasps are brass.
Each piece is different in pattern but stays with the design and general colourway.
